Thanksgiving is a time families get together. Some families stay home and others travel.
School makes it difficult for families who want to travel but can’t since they are worried about their kids missing school.
Some families fly out to other states while others drive to states which could take hours or even days to get there.
A longer break could also help reduce stress off parents who are thinking about getting home on time.
A lot of families do stay home but a longer break could give them the opportunity to travel to go and see family out of state.
Also a lot of students have big families, so they have multiple dinners with families which could also take days.
This break could also help students and teachers more time to rest and relax, which could help with mental and physical health.
It could also give them the opportunities to catch up on work that they have not finished.
